JPMorgan Chase Financial (AMJB) auto callable notes with 9.15% contingent interest
JPMorgan Chase Financial Company LLC is issuing auto callable contingent interest notes linked separately to the MSCI EAFE, Russell 2000 and S&P 500 indexes, fully and unconditionally guaranteed by JPMorgan Chase & Co. The notes pay a contingent coupon of at least 9.15% per year (2.2875% per quarter) only when each index closes at or above 70% of its initial level on a review date, and they can be automatically called as early as June 22, 2026.
If not called, the notes mature on December 24, 2030. Principal is protected only while every index stays at or above 70% of its initial level; if any index ends below that trigger, repayment is reduced in line with that index’s loss, so investors can lose a large portion or all of the $1,000 principal. The estimated initial value is about $960 per $1,000 note and will not be less than $940.

FAQ
What are JPMorgan AMJB Auto Callable Contingent Interest Notes?
These notes are structured debt securities issued by JPMorgan Chase Financial Company LLC and guaranteed by JPMorgan Chase & Co. They pay contingent interest and may be redeemed early (auto called) based on the performance of the MSCI EAFE, Russell 2000 and S&P 500 indexes.
How do the contingent interest payments on AMJB notes work?
On each review date, if the closing level of each index is at least 70.00% of its initial value, investors receive a contingent interest payment of at least $22.875 per $1,000 note, equivalent to a rate of at least 9.15% per year, paid quarterly.
When can the AMJB notes be automatically called and what do investors receive?
The notes are automatically called on any review date from June 22, 2026 onward (excluding the first and final review dates) if each index closes at or above its initial value. Investors then receive $1,000 per note plus the applicable contingent interest payment, and no further payments are made.
What principal protection and downside risk do AMJB investors face at maturity?
If the notes are not called and the final value of every index is at or above 70.00% of its initial value, investors receive $1,000 plus the final contingent interest payment. If any index finishes below 70.00%, the payoff is $1,000 + ($1,000 × Least Performing Index Return), meaning losses greater than 30.00% of principal and potentially a full loss.
What is the estimated initial value of the AMJB notes versus the price to public?
If priced on the illustrated date, the estimated value would be approximately $960.00 per $1,000 note, and will not be less than $940.00 per $1,000 note when terms are set. The price to public is $1,000 per note, reflecting structuring and hedging costs.
What key risks are highlighted for investors in the AMJB notes?
Key disclosed risks include potential loss of principal, the possibility of receiving no interest at all, exposure to the worst-performing index, credit risk of both JPMorgan entities, lack of liquidity because the notes are not exchange-listed, and that the notes do not pay dividends on the underlying index constituents.
What are the maturity date and minimum denomination for AMJB notes?
The notes have a scheduled maturity date of December 24, 2030, if not called earlier. They are issued in minimum denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples of $1,000.
